This was an excellent trip. The tour director, Waleed was excellent. The tour was superb. Leared a lot about Egypt
Our tour was very enjoyable. Gate 1 Travel continues to provide great vacation opportunities at a "good value"
Our guide Ali made everything safe and interesting. We did benefit from the changes made due to feedback from the 1st year of the tour.
Our experience on this trip was “epic”. Our team in Kenya, David, Marcus and Tony were wonderful, as was the team in Tanazina of Godliving, HQ, and Baraka. All of the places we stayed were very good. The food was good as well. The vehicles were great for the safari, better then some we saw! Not sure what could be done better, this was just a once in a life time experience! We are telling everyone about this trip, everyone who wants to go to Africa will be looking at Gate 1 for details! Thank you
Fantastic trip. Guide, hotels, excursions, meals were all excellent. Finland and the Lapland are a gem.
One of the best tours we have taken. Gate1 met every expectation and our tour manager, outstanding.
Our Gate 1 tour manager, Hari Saravan, was exceptional in every way possible. We have not ever (even when we have had personal guides by other operators) had such a positive experience with a guide. He was very organized, communicated effectively and in a timely way in terms of trip management, was personable and highly accessible, and helpful in sorting out minor challenges and questions. Hari was extraordinarily knowledgeable and conveyed his knowledge and expertise in effective and accessible ways. He simply is extraordinary and in large part the reason for our having had such a positive experience in this group tour. An asset in every way imaginable. We would point out that at least one of the accommodations, Great Trails Riverview Resort Thanjavur By GRT Hotels, was notably sub-standard. Other hotels (the Radisson Blu) were marginal.
Discovery by Gate 1 delivered what they wrote in their itinerary
Outstanding 14 day trip to New Zealand. Everything was excellent. Small group of 22. Excellent tour guide and amazing views. We are very pleased.
This was one of the best trips I’ve ever been on!
Excellent information, the look and see of the culture and history of Mexico’s ancient civilization.
This was our first Gate 1 small tour program which we thoroughly enjoyed. We will focus on future small tour programs offered by Gate 1. Thanks
Our New Zealand tour was well managed. Thanks to Gate1 and the tour manager Aaron.
We had a wonderful tour director in Tim De Jong. His attention to detail was amazing. He showed wonderful leadership qualities and was able to bond the tour group into one happy family. At the same time he regaled us with stories of the various places we visited. We had a little disappointment that we could not see Franz Josef glacier as the coastal road south of Greymouth was closed. However the alternate route from Arthur’s Pass to Dunedin, and from Dunedin to Queenstown through gold country towns was very scenic. I would suggest adding an extra day in Queenstown with an option drive to Glenorchy. The local people were very friendly and helpful. The food was always great! This trip is highly recommended.
